The Historic Aircraft Flight was formed at Biggin Hill in 1957 to commemorate the RAFs major battle honour, The Battle of Britain. It was renamed the Battle of Britain Memorial Flight when it acquired the Lancaster B1 in 1973. Today the Flight is one of the worlds best known historic aircraft collections, maintaining in airworthy condition a Lancaster, five Spitfires, two Hurricanes, two Chipmunks and a Dakota.

Lest We Forget by Adrian Rigby.		Lancaster, Spitfire and Hurricane over their home base at RAF Coningsby on the annual Lincolnshires Lancaster Association members day.

Battle of Britain Memorial Flypast by Timothy OBrien.		The official commemoration of the 60th Anniversary of Bomber Command was marked by a moving service in St.Pauls Cathedral on 24th April 2002, attended by over 1500 surviving WWII bomber crews and personnel. At the end of the service, those present emerged onto the steps of the Cathedral to hear the unmistakable sound of four Merlin engines approaching, and at precisely 12.20pm the BBMF Lancaster flew over the assembled crowd who burst into spontaneous applause - a fitting and emotive tribute to the sacrifice and dedication of so many.
In Remembrance by Michael Turner.		The Battle of Britain Memorial Flight will always remain a firm favourite with the airshow-going public. With an unmistakable purr of six Merlin engines, the flight makes one of the most evocative sights on the circuit. Aircraft of the Battle of Britain Memorial Flight fly over the Battle of Britain Fighter Pilots Memorial at Capel le Ferne, near Folkestone, England. The memorial shows a pilot pensively looking out towards the coast of France from where the enemy have at last ceased to come. Around the base are tributes to all the squadrons of the many Allied Nations who stood together against the odds in 1940. As a living tribute the RAF Battle of Britain Memorial Flight operate several Spitfires, two Hurricanes and a sole Lancaster from their base at RAF Coningsby in Lincolnshire. Here the aircraft are Lancaster B1, PA474 painted to represent No 9 Sqn, Spitfire Ab910 painted as No 222 (Natal Sqn and Hurricane LF363 representing 56 Sqn. Tony Iveson was a 617 Squadron Pilot 1944/45. Paul Day has been flying these precious aircraft for almost 20 years.
